Contents/Summary

Summary

Two young directors, Ivars Zviedris and Inese Kļava, take the camera to the moorlands of Kemeri near Riga to explore the life of Inta, who leads a secluded life in the forest. This rural eccentric may not own a TV set, but she does know the rules of mass media, including the nuances separating docu-soap and reality show. When Ivars first shows up on her doorstep and asks if he can film her, she erupts into a flurry of curses and threatens to put a hex on him. Filmed over the course of a year against the backdrop of Latvia’s forests, the filmmaker and his subject develop a special relationship. He keeps her company, helps with her chores and asks about her life, while she in turn wonders how all this will turn into a "movie", and whether Ivars is exploiting her for profit.
